Long night

It was a good night, Trick or Treater's started coming around 6:30 and it died down around 8 (so we packed it up and closed down the Haunted Garage). I'd say we had about 30-40 kids last night but it's hard to tell for sure cause I was quite generous in handing out the candy. There were a few super cute kids (around 3-5 years old), those are the one's I do it for but then we also got our regular teenage crowd which I always save the crap candy for! ;) I hate when the teenage kids come around with a sheet around their neck and expect treats! At least if they put a little effort into it, it wouldn't be so bad! A few of our friends came over (Eric and Heidi - from the racetrack) and Denise and Earl with their little guy dressed as a lion! Sooooo cute, until I decided it was a good idea to give him his first piece of chocolate (ever), an Aero bar. Not such a good idea!! The poor little guy seemed to like it at first and then he got this funny look on his face and up it came along with whatever else he had eaten recently! It was just a little bit at first, not too bad, but then ..... round two! Blah! I tried to help clean it up but it had such a strong smell I almost lost it! Sorry Dee, I couldn't do it, but thanks a ton for cleaning it up for me! :)


So this morning I woke up and all I could think about was this poor kid that looked like he was foaming at the mouth as it poured down his chin and I felt a lump in my stomach, I could barely brush my teeth! It was horrible and still is, I feel so gaggy now and I'm sure I'm going to loose my lunch! I'm trying to keep the "mind over body" thought process and maybe if I continue "fighting" this gag reflex feeling it will eventually go away! I can always hope anyway! ;)

I guess my doctors office called our house yesterday and told my hubby that "yes, we are definitely pregnant" something I already have come to accept but I think he needed that little reassurance, he tried to ask the lady about my HCG levels but couldn't remember what they were called so she just told him to have me call back today - which is what I am doing as I type this! :) Here is a good website that talks about HCG levels if you are curious click HERE This is pretty much what it says....


3 weeks LMP (last menstral period): 5 - 50 mIU/ml
4 weeks LMP: 5 - 426 mIU/ml
5 weeks LMP: 18 - 7,340 mIU/ml
6 weeks LMP: 1,080 - 56,500 mIU/ml
7 - 8 weeks LMP: 7, 650 - 229,000 mIU/ml
9 - 12 weeks LMP: 25,700 - 288,000 mIU/ml
13 - 16 weeks LMP: 13,300 - 254,000 mIU/ml
17 - 24 weeks LMP: 4,060 - 165,400 mIU/ml
25 - 40 weeks LMP: 3,640 - 117,000 mIU/ml
Non-pregnant females: <5.0>/ml
Postmenopausal females: <9.5>/ml

My number is 21,712 right where it should be!! Which makes me feel a little better about the health and safety of our baby.

Question of the day: Have you ever wished when someone was talking to you that they would just shut up!? Maybe it's just me!? ;)

lol its all good, even if you wheren't preggers I would have still cleaned it up. Something about your friends clean up your kids throw up is wrong.

Luv you girl, hang in there.
